That's the default, yes. But one can tweak the Registry to force Windows behave more like X, in that just entering a window with the mouse gives it focus. (I do this on any Windows machine I need to work on, because I hate the need to click--it requires that I move the mouse much more than I need to, and also precludes me from typing into a window while having another window fully exposed.) > Raising a window automatically gives it focus. Yes, I think this always happens on Windows. Which is why focus-follows-mouse doesn't have any effect. > I'm on Windows ME where focus changes by default would happen > instantaneously, that's why I'm using a somewhat infamous thing called > TXMouse which is, however, "sloppy" too. My Registry tweaks include setting the time delay between entering a window and it getting the focus. _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
